[Haskell-cafe] Haskell poker server

Alistair,

Thanks alot for your examples. I still have one unanswered question...

How would you read a tuple of values (24, GID, Seq) like in my Erlang  
example, where 24 is one byte, GID is a 4-byte integer and Seq is a 2- 
byte word? Is there an elegant way of specifying packet format and  
reading/writing Haskell data according to it?

     Thanks, Joel
